Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of diaphragm valve technology, and in particular relates to a diaphragm valve with an elastic load-equalizing diaphragm clamping structure. Background Technology

[0002] A diaphragm valve is a special type of shut-off valve. Its opening and closing element is a diaphragm made of soft material. The valve is opened and closed by the up and down movement of the diaphragm. According to the different flow channel structures, diaphragm valves are mainly divided into weir diaphragm valves, straight-through diaphragm valves, and angle diaphragm valves. The basic structure of existing diaphragm valves includes: valve body, valve cover, diaphragm, valve stem, and actuator. The diaphragm edge usually adopts a flat flange clamping structure, that is, the diaphragm edge is clamped between the flat flanges between the valve body and the valve cover, and sealing and fixing are achieved by applying pre-tightening force through multiple bolts.

[0003] However, in the operation of existing diaphragm valves, the pressure on the diaphragm is uneven. When the valve is frequently opened and closed, the diaphragm is prone to fatigue cracks and damage due to uneven stress, which leads to sealing failure and media leakage, thus affecting the normal use of the diaphragm valve.

[0010] Furthermore, the positioning assembly includes several positioning rods fixedly connected to the top of the valve body, and a positioning element is provided on the valve cover.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. By setting up a compression section, during installation, after the diaphragm is fitted onto the valve body and limited, the protruding strips at the bottom of the diaphragm are inserted into the corresponding limiting grooves on the valve body. Then, the valve cover is placed on the valve body, so that the protruding strips at the top of the diaphragm are inserted into the corresponding limiting grooves on the valve cover. After the valve cover and valve body are fixed, the diaphragm is pressed tightly by the compression strips to achieve a fixed seal. When opening and closing the valve, the diaphragm is closed and opened by moving the protrusions to compress or move away from the diaphragm. The traditional planar clamping can be changed to uniform clamping. The diaphragm is divided by multiple protruding strips, so that the clamping force is evenly distributed layer by layer, eliminating stress concentration. At the same time, the diaphragm is compressed by the compression strips to ensure its connection strength, which can prevent the diaphragm from being damaged due to stress, avoid sealing failure and media leakage, and thus ensure the normal use of the diaphragm valve.

[0014] 2. By setting up an installation section, during the installation process, the diaphragm is first aligned and limited with the valve body using the positioning component, and then the valve cover is aligned and limited with the valve body using the positioning component. Subsequently, the bolts of the disassembly and assembly component are inserted into the valve body and valve cover, and the bolts are limited using the snap-fit ​​component. After the gasket is put on, the nut is tightened to complete the fixation of the valve cover and valve body. This ensures the stability of the installation between the valve cover and valve body, avoids the valve cover from tilting when tightening a single nut, and further ensures the uniformity of the clamping force. At the same time, the positioning rod and through hole two prevent the diaphragm from becoming eccentric, thereby further ensuring the normal use of the diaphragm valve.

[0028] The extrusion section 2 includes a dispersion assembly 21 disposed on the valve body 101; and a limiting assembly 22 installed inside the valve body 101. The dispersion assembly 21 includes a diaphragm 211 disposed on the valve body 101. A plurality of protruding strips 1 212 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the diaphragm 211, as are protruding strips 213 and 3 214. There are eight protrusions, divided into two groups. The two groups of protrusions 212 are mirror images of each other, as are the two groups of protrusions 213 and 214. The limiting component 22 includes two extrusion bars 221 positioned above the valve body 101.

[0029] The mounting section 3 includes a positioning assembly 31, which is mounted on the valve body 101; and a disassembly assembly 32, of which several are mounted on the valve cover 102 in an array. The positioning assembly 31 includes several positioning rods 311 fixedly connected to the top of the valve body 101. The valve cover 102 has positioning elements, with the positioning rods 311 arranged in an array. Each positioning element includes several through holes 312 formed in the inner wall of the diaphragm 211, penetrating the diaphragm 211. The inner wall of the valve cover 102 has several positioning holes 313, penetrating the valve cover 102. Each positioning rod 311 is adapted to one of the through holes 312, and each positioning rod 311 is aligned with one of the positioning holes 312. The 13-phase matching and disassembly assembly 32 includes a bolt 321 set inside the valve body 101, a washer 322 set above the bolt 321, a nut 323 set above the washer 322, and a snap-fit ​​component set outside the bolt 321. The bolt 321 and the nut 323 are compatible. The snap-fit ​​component includes a polygonal groove 324 formed on the outer wall of the valve body 101. A polygonal block 325 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bolt 321. The polygonal groove 324 and the polygonal block 325 are compatible. By setting the mounting part 3, the stability of the installation between the valve cover 102 and the valve body 101 can be ensured, and the valve cover 102 can be prevented from tilting when a single nut 323 is turned. This further ensures the uniformity of the clamping force. At the same time, the positioning rod 311 and the through hole 312 prevent the diaphragm 211 from becoming eccentric, thereby further ensuring the normal use of the diaphragm valve.

[0030] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: When installation is required, the diaphragm 211 can be fitted onto the valve body 101 and limited by the through hole 312 and the positioning rod 311. Then, the diaphragm 211 can be pressed tightly against the valve body 101. At this time, the protrusion 212 at the bottom of the diaphragm 211 can be inserted into the limiting groove 225 on the valve body 101, the protrusion 213 at the bottom of the diaphragm 211 can be inserted into the limiting groove 223 on the valve body 101, and the protrusion 214 at the bottom of the diaphragm 211 can be inserted into the limiting groove 224 on the valve body 101, thereby completing the limiting.

[0031] After installation on the diaphragm 211, the valve cover 102 can be placed on the valve body 101 and the positioning hole 313 and positioning rod 311 can be used to limit the position. Then, the position can be limited by the protrusions 212, 213 and 214 on the diaphragm 211 and the limiting grooves 223, 224 and 225 on the valve cover 102.

[0032] After the limiting position is set, bolt 321 can be inserted into valve body 101 and valve cover 102. Then, the polygonal block 325 and polygonal groove 324 can be used for limiting. Next, gasket 322 can be placed on bolt 321, and nut 323 can be screwed onto bolt 321. Finally, tighten to complete the fixing. At this point, due to the function of positioning rod 311 and positioning hole 313, the valve cover 102 will not warp. After installing several disassembly and assembly components 32, the protrusions 212, 213, and 214 can be positioned. The three protruding bars 214, the first limiting groove 223, the second limiting groove 224, and the third limiting groove 225 complete the limiting, ensuring that the diaphragm 211 is restricted between the valve cover 102 and the valve body 101. The protruding bars 212, the second protruding bars 213, and the third protruding bars 214, as well as the first limiting groove 223, the second limiting groove 224, and the third limiting groove 225, will divide the diaphragm 211 into two areas, an outer ring, which is used to distribute the fixing force on the diaphragm 211, while the inner ring is used to form a valve with the groove 103 and the protrusion 104.

[0033] After the valve cover 102 and valve body 101 are fixed by the disassembly and assembly assembly 32, the diaphragm 211 will be pressed by the extrusion strip 221, thereby completing the fixed seal.

[0034] When the valve needs to be opened or closed, the handle 107 can be turned to rotate the slide rod 108. When the slide rod 108 rotates, it will drive the threaded sleeve 109 to rotate. When the threaded sleeve 109 rotates, it will move downward. At this time, the protrusion 104 will move downward under the limit of the slide groove 105 and the slider 106, thereby squeezing the inner ring of the diaphragm 211 and finally sticking to the groove 103 to complete the sealing closure. When it is necessary to open, it can be rotated in the opposite direction to make the protrusion 104 move away from the groove 103 and complete the opening.
